[nznog] Re: IPv6 status?

If that anecdote is true, they're doing something wrong. What I hear is there is no performance impact in general, with some reports of bulk data moving faster with IPv6 (probably due to some kind of MTU issue). Regards Brian Carpenter On 14-Jul-22 09:16, Juha Saarinen wrote:

Anecdotally, I’m hearing that some smaller ISPs don’t run IPv6 on their networks because it kills performance for their customers.

Doesn’t seem like the right way to fix the issue, but small budgets etc.

 Globally https://www.google.com/intl/en/ipv6/statistics.html https://www.google.com/intl/en/ipv6/statistics.html shows steady growth, and just passed the 40% native IPV6 mark. It's slow but steady progress given the enormity of the protocol changes introduced and the lack of backward compatibility.

However https://www.google.com/intl/en/ipv6/statistics.html#tab=per-country-ipv6-ado... https://www.google.com/intl/en/ipv6/statistics.html#tab=per-country-ipv6-ado... does show NZ is lagging the average on only 19% - anecdotally, none of the 3 ISPs I've used recently for various residential connections  have made it possible to get IPv6 - Starlink did for a few months initially, but then it disappeared when they moved to their NZ routed ranges :(
